Fun Movie Genre Lesson: What kind of movie is it?
« on: May 24, 2011, 01:48:06 AM »
Need 50 minutes now? Here you go. This lesson teaches a key phrase as well as some vocabulary about movie genres the kids might not know. (What kind of movie is it? It's a fantasy/animated/drama/action/comedy.) I used it with my after-school 6th grade class and they really loved it!  It would probably work for Grade 1 middle school too! ;)

The PPT consists of an introduction, dialog practice and quick review game. For the last 10 minutes of class, we watched movie trailers, practiced the dialog and answered comprehension questions.

Kung Fu Panda 2 (Animated)


Transformers 3 (Action)


Deathly Hallows 2 (Fantasy)

New and improved powerpoint.  I added a worksheet and also a game because I know that kids really go through this lesson pretty fast.

Great to hear the feedback!  I am glad that your kids loved it I think Word Lotto is a great activity for practicing and drilling writing words.  I just added the timer and visual directions for students and Korean native teachers.
